1-Lands of the Middle East
An illustrated talk by Sir Reader Bullard
This programme describes some of the countries of the Middle East, evokes some picture of its history, and mentions some of its problems. The main speaker, Sir Reader Bullard , spent many years in different parts of the Middle East, and was at one time British Ambassador to Persia. The programme includes recorded impressions by nationals of some of the countries.

I-Independence by Geoffrey Grigson
Virtues, like fashions, have their cycles, which tend to obscure not so much vices as other opposing virtues. An age of tolerance is an age of scepticism; a race with a high regard for courage and leadership tends to undervalue the meek and lowly of spirit. In a series of three talks Geoffrey Grigson deals with three virtues which, in his opinion, are not valued sufficiently at the present time. They are independence, integrity, and curiosity. He illustrates his first talk, on independence, from the life of William Blake.
